[dddwg] IUCr EC approved raw data recommendations

Dear Colleagues,

The IUCr Executive Secretary has reported from the recent meeting of the
   IUCr Executive Committee (EC) held in Adelaide that the EC is very pleased
   with what the Diffraction Data Deposition Working Group has achieved
   in such a short time. The EC approved the following recommendations:

   (1) Authors may provide a permanent and prominent link from an article
   to the raw data sets underpinning a journal publication (with a view to
   making this a formal requirement on authors at such time as the
   community has adopted raw data deposition as a routine procedure).

   (2) IUCr Commissions should be charged with the task of defining experimental
   metadata relevant to their scientific fields in order to harmonize raw
   data archiving at disparate facilities.


Best wishes and regards,
John and Brian
John R Helliwell and Brian McMahon
